Need Help With Cushions!
i am pretty much a newbie and can make any shape out of a polygon, but this one i am stumped! How would i go about making the shape of the cushion of this chair?
Do i just make a polygon make the bump shapes then smooth it? (the back piece), or would it be a texture thing? Any help would be greatly appreciated

When in doubt, delete history and freeze transformations.

I would just use polys.
Do a quick paintover of the topology to give you some ideas of how you want it to flow.
I would extrude it in various places
